Alexandra's Anguish
by Margaret Tanner
2022
Alexandra and the man she meets are both damaged by betrayal and abandonment. Their story is quieter than some of Tanner's westerns, but the emotional ache runs deep.
The Reclusive Man (Margaret Tanner) books in chronological order
Series background & context
The men in this series have stepped away from ordinary life. Grief, betrayal, guilt, or plain emotional damage has taught them to keep their distance from everyone around them.
That makes the heroine's arrival especially disruptive. She does not just bring romance. She brings the possibility of change, which is often harder for the hero to accept. Tanner's Alexandra's Anguish fits that pattern of two battered people finding each other when neither is ready.
Readers who like brooding western heroes, damaged hearts, and slow emotional thawing should feel very comfortable in this series.
